I hope all of my loyal and faithful readers and followers are having a great weekend. Today is a beautiful day in The Big Apple, The Greatest City In The World.
This is Sunday, so I think it is only appropriate for Billi Pod to give you something of a religious nature to ponder ...
Yes ... it does make you wonder ... why???
Well ... yesterday was a mixed couch-potato doubleheader for Billi Pod.
First, The Gators 20-17 win over Texas A&M==>AWESOME!!
We won on the road to open SEC play and overcame a 10-point deficit in doing so, our largest deficit to win since 2006. The Gators totally shutdown the Aggies offense in the second half.
Now it is on to Neyland Stadium and The Vols.
GO GATORS!!
The second half of doubleheader was ...
The Yankees 5-4 loss to the Orioles, aided by a blown call==>BARF!!
Yes, our ace CC Sabathia had his 3rd consecutive ineffective start and that does not bode well for our playoff hopes.
We staged a rally in the top of the 9th inning only to see it fall short when the first base umpire totally blew a call on what was the final out of the game. Had he made the right call the tying run would have scored.
Would we have ultimately won? Who knows, but we deserved the chance.
Anyway ... moving on ... oh ... don’t they pay these guys to make proper calls, especially in games as crucial as this one? Jus askin ...
Moving on ... really ...
I was able to get in a decent walking schedule, mostly in my ‘hood.
Today’s entertainment events are ...
1:30==>JETS vs. BUFFALO as Timmy Tebow makes his regular season Jets debut. No way would I miss this game, no f-ing way.
Go, Timmy. It is time to show all the nay-sayers that there is good reason behind Tebowmania.
GO JETS!!
Unfortunately, at about the same time is the YANKEES/ORIOLES game but, trust me on this, I will give the Jets game priority ... unless ... of course ... the Jets are get the crap beat out of them ...
On the mound for the Yankees will be Freddy Garcia (7-6) vs. Zach Britten (5-1) for the Birds.
This is the 4th game of the series and the final regular season game between the teams, who presently are tied for the lead in the AL East.
My entertainment event for this evening is ...
7:15==>FLY ME TO THE MOON - “Two economically challenged women face an ethical dilemma when the old man they’ve been caring for, and whose pension they have been skimming, dies after a financial windfall.” (Off Broadway - complimentary ticket)
This is playing at the 59th Street Theatre Complex, one of my favorite venues.
When the show is over I will walk back to the apartment. And, speaking of walking ...
Will post this now and try to get an hour long walk and wander session, probably down in the Chelsea area.
Yesterday’s Pedometer mileage==>5.24 miles (or, 11,470 steps)
Total mileage since 7/1/12==>340.57
Mileage remaining until 4/23/13==>738.43
GO YANKEES AND GO GATORS!!
